Library 2.0

• Library 2.0 changes the way we use the library, from reading books, searching for books, checking them out, and re-checking them out.
• If you want to know if a book is at the library, you don't have to go search for it, ask a librarian, or even go to the library at all. You simply need to

go to the library's website and search for it by title, author, keywords, ISBN.. etc.

• If you have a book checked out and it is due back, and you aren't finished with it yet, most libraries will allow you to update it with the click of your mouse.
• Most books, including text books, are available electronically to enjoy on the computer, or digital book reader like the Kindle or iphone.
• Library 2.0 also goes far beyond just novels. It makes research easier; easier to find journals, books, magazines, videos, and much more.
• Interlibrary Loans allow users of one library to borrow books/resources from another library. It can be the actual book, photocopy, or even a scan.
